We must hold on, and we will hold on. For us, there is even something attractive about so much change. Cynical, maybe, but it’s true. Our physical bodies haven’t changed yet; our actions are still the same. But everything around us is different. Our life itself has come off its axis, and adjusting to that, changing ourselves to fit, will take some time. The most important thing is to emerge from this metamorphosis strong and brave. London was bombed for two hours today. A passenger ship was sunk. These are dark times for civilization.
